4.1. What to do for energy saving

AConnecting the product to electronic energy-saving systems is harmful, as it may damage the product.

•Do not keep the refrigerator doors open for long periods.

•Do not place hot food or beverages into the refrigerator.

•Do not overfill the refrigerator; blocking the internal air flow will reduce cooling capacity.

•In order to store the maximum amount of food into the cooler compartment of your refrigerator, you should take out the upper drawers and place it onto the glass rack.

The declared energy consumption of your refrigerator was determined by taking out the cooler, ice tray and upper drawers in a way that will enable maximum storage. Using the below drawer when storing is strongly recommended. Energy saving function should be activated for best energy consumption.

•You should not block the airflow by putting food in front of the cooler fan. A space of minimum 3cm must be left in front of the protective fan wire when placing food.

•Depending on the product’s features; defrosting frozen foods in the cooler compartment will ensure energy saving and preserve food quality.

•Food should be stored using the drawers in the cooler compartment in order to ensure energy saving and protect food in better conditions.

•Food packages should not be in direct contact with the heat sensor located in the cooler compartment. If they are in contact with the sensor, energy consumption of the appliance might increase.

•Make sure the foods are not in contact with the cooler compartment temperature sensor described below.

4.2. First Use

Before using your refrigerator, make sure the necessary preparations are made in line with the instructions in “Safety and environment instructions” and “Installation” sections.

•Keep the product running with no food inside for 6 and do not open the door, unless absolutely necessary.

CA sound will be heard when the compressor is engaged. It is normal to hear sound even when the compressor is inactive, due to the compressed liquids and gasses in the cooling system.
